The boxes of paint have made their debut again! I have gotten in my painting mode (it tends to come and go at times). . and I have taken our home and other projects by storm! In the past I have painted signs for teachers and paintings for adorable little boys and girls. Here are some of the things I have created:
 |
| 18 x 24 Canvas made for a princess to go in her room! |
 |
| Bulletin Board for Jack. . my little brother! I ended up painting the cork board with chalkboard paint! |
 |
| Classroom sign |
 |
| Painting for our kitchen. |

Recently, we have created a few things for our home. . we have painted a rug, a table, and built/painted another table:
Finally. . in so many ways! We also just spent the weekend sanding and painting a dresser to turn it into an entertainment center:
Making it a home. We are pretty proud of the dresser project!
I had a wonderful friend back home ask if I could paint her a sign for her classroom. She was really the inspiration for getting my paints back out and loved her idea of a racing theme! It is so unique! At least I had never heard of it before. This is what I came up with for her 1st grade classroom:
I can't wait to see a picture of it hanging next to her door or in her classroom! I will be shipping it to her this week just in time for the new school year!
Now on to the home. . .
We have such a hard time picking out pictures for our home. Ryan and I tend to agree to disagree on many decorations. That is when I decided to buy a canvas and a few frames to create something for our home. Ryan actually picked out the frames. . he really liked the wooden rustic look of them. . .and I did too! :)

| Hello sunshine. . my only. . . |
I have also started creating wreaths for our door! I don't know about you, but it creates such a welcoming/happy feeling when you come home and you are "greeted" by something fun and creative hanging on your door! It is your personal stamp on your home!
 |
| The wooden R is from our wedding! Our "everyday" wreath. |
 |
| Our Halloween wreath! A favorite for sure! |
We are know trying to decide on a painting for our living room to hang near our new entertainment center! We got the wooden/rustic frames to use in the living room also! Can't wait to share with you our end result!
Until next time. .
